The Lucid Friend
"Down, down, down into the darkness of the grave
Gently they go, the beautiful, the tender, the kind; "

cascade
with mystique
to dark -a b y s s.
Frames of my life fade,
as my ashes -d i s s o l v e.
At the end of this -t u n n e l-
awaits a -l u c i d- friend in hood,
all pain vanishes at the -s u m m i t;
on mama's lap i doze to -a f t e r l i f e.
